Should we handle RMI_EXIT_RIPAS_CHANGE differently? Currently, the call path is:
kvm_rec_exit()
-> RMI_EXIT_RIPAS_CHANGE
-> handle_hvc()
-> kvm_rec_handle_hvc()
-> kvm_prepare_memory_fault_exit()
Could we instead treat RMI_EXIT_RIPAS_CHANGE as a special case and avoid
redirecting it through handle_hvc()? The completion part of the RIPAS
change could still be handled by kvm_rec_handle_request().
